Notes

2011-05-30 - Identified through on-line information from Bill Ehrke. -- The structure was originally First Baptist Church and was acquired by First Christian when the Baptists relocated around 1920. There is disagreement over whether an organ was in place during the Baptists' tenure. The 2m 3r Wicks was purchased by the Christian Church during the 1920's and remains in regular use. -Database Manager

2011-11-02 - Updated through online information from Jeff Scofield. -- The only Ballinger church in the Wicks opus list is the Methodist Church, where 2/7 Wicks Op. 828 was installed in 1929. This may be an error, or it describes an organ that was relocated from its original installation. -Database Manager
